Good night’s sleep is essential
for your health. However, if
you eat these foods, do not
even dream to sleep like a
baby! Avoid them at all
accounts.
7 worst foods for your sleep:
These are the killers of your
sleep and enough rest and may
evoke nightmares.
1. Pizza
Few pieces of delicious pizza
can give you a sleepless night.
Why? Just because it’s fatty
and juicy. Your digestive system
would need all its capacities to
process it. You may get
heartburn or pains in your
stomach or just the need to
wake up and wait for the food
to be digested.
2. Ice cream
For one, eating it may cause
nightmares. Ice cream is sweet.
It supplies your body with much
energy, and since you are going
to bed, you have no chance of
spending it. You may either have
a sleepless night or turn those
calories into fat. Plus, you get
rapid ups and downs of sugar in
your blood.
3. Celery
It’s a veggie, and it has to be
good for your body, but do not
eat it before you go to bed.
Why? Well, because it has a
strong diuretic effect. It
means it causes your body to
shed water, and you will wake up
many times during the night to
urinate.
4. Sweets
Sugar in the blood affects the
brain waves, and those give us
nightmares. So, unless you like
seeing horrible dreams, stay
away from eating candies or
chocolate before you go to bed.
5. Alcohol
Some people believe it can help
you to have a better sleep, but
that’s not true. Until it stays in
the body, it keeps you asleep,
but once it gets processed, you
wake up. The sleep becomes
shallow and unsound.
6. Garlic
If you eat it right before the
bedtime, you can get severe
heartburn or an upset stomach.
And that’s the last thing you
need for a good sleep.
7. Red meat
It has tons of fats and
proteins. Your stomach would be
forced to digest it all night
long. Plus it can give you
nightmares. So, it’s a perfect
sleep killer.
Avoid these foods to have a
great sleep at night and wake
up fully refreshed.
